Since Microbe and Gasoil in 2015, Michael Gondry has not stopped shooting: music videos, animated shorts, series with Jim Carrey (Kidding), webseries in collaboration with his brother. This time he returns to France to shoot his eleventh feature film in the Cévennes. The book of solutions, the journey of a stubborn filmmaker who seeks to apply the rules of do it yourself to the 7th art. 

The actor Pierre Niney will be Marc, his double on screen, surrounded by Blanche Gardin, Vincent Elbaz, Frankie Wallach, Camille Rutherford and Françoise Lebrun. Produced by Georges Bermann (Partizan), The Book of Solutions will be distributed in France by The Jokers

Synopsis: 
After fleeing to the Cevennes to finish his film, Marc finds himself left to his own devices and the demons that haunt him. In spite of some brilliant, funny and comical inspirations, which illuminate the story, he keeps losing his footing, compromising both his career and his mental balance. He will find in this descent into hell, both comical and dramatic, the resources to bounce back.
